We have a customer who uses utf-8 encoded websites and wants mailto-link on some websites with integrated subject/content.
Website is written in ASP (.NET is not available at customer site).
So according to RFC (as far as I could interpret it), we created a mailto-link like this: ....
What are the advantages/disadvantages of using this form submission approach as opposed to eg: Cdo, aspEmail - it appears to harness the MS standard mailto capability?:
<FORM ENCTYPE="text/plain" NAME="test" METHOD='POST'
ACTION='mailto:info@examle.com?subject=Resume' onSubmit="return
submitForm()">
I have to use mailto so the pages opens up the users default client. I need
to format the body of the email in HTML format so I can show some the text
in bold, italics and underlined? Is this possible to do? if so how?
I'm just learning ASP. I have a mailto and I have a lot of text that I want to display in the body. Is there a way to store that text in a variable & then add it to the mailto tag?
View Replies View RelatedThis may be a daft question, but if I wanted to use a simple mailto, i.e Code:
<a href="mailto:joe@bloggs.co.uk"></a>
Is this wise? from a spamming point of view. I am aware of encoders out there that basically make jargon from an email address which fools the robots, am i talking rubbish or what? Basically! Is it wise to use standard mailto links or is there a better way?
ok I have a page that displays all of the 3000+ records of people, phone numbers, and email addresses. on this page I have added a link that combines all of the e-mail addresses into one mailto: link so that we can mass notify these people of upcoming projects. the problem is that i think the link is too big for the browser to handle. the view source shows that everything is there but i cannot click the link. i have tried both IE and FireFox to no avail. The code is below just in case i have a typo or something...
sql = "Select * from people WHERE (IsNull(m_idstatus) OR m_idstatus <> 'id2') AND (m_email Like '%@%')"
...
y = 0
do while not rs.eof
If (rs("m_email") = "" OR IsNull(rs("m_email"))) Then
e_email = e_email
Else
e_email = e_email & rs("m_first_name") & " " & rs("m_last_name") & "(" & rs("m_email") & "); "
y = y + 1
End If
rs.movenext
loop
...
<a href="mailto:?bcc=<%= e_email %>">E-MAIL ALL</a> |
I have also tried changing the format of the link by adding test@test.com before the ?bcc= but get the same results on both browsers. Like I said in the beginning I assume that the link is just too big for the browser; does anyone have any ideas besides making a mail form in the page? I would prefer to stick with a mailto link so that we can keep internal Outlook features.
I have created simple .asp page and i would like to send my page as email using my outlook. is it possible to send form body as new email outlook body using mailto

View Replies View RelatedI am developing a simple little application for a client that allows them to do an employee lookup. This small Access database contains only a few fields such as name, job, email address etc.
However, when the data is pulled from the database, I would like my ASP pages to create the email as a mailto command when pressed. I'm not sure how to go about this.

I've got an aspx page with a 'mailto' with accented characters in the
subject field, when the mail is created the accented characters aren't
displayed correctly.
The mailto looks like this:....
In my page, i have 6 textbox field:
name, id, email address, age and bookingStatus, bookingMessage.
when i click a button in the page(mailto), the ms outlook will opened, and all the information in the field(name, id, email address, bookingStatus, and bookingMessage) will be displayed in the ms outlook in the message part before i send the email.
I want to use the "mailto" code!
The form will be emailed to the user according to the email field, that means, the "mailto" address will come from the form "email address field" in the form
The subject of the email will be: fixed as "BOOKING STATUS"
I have searched far and wide, and have NOT found a way to do this.
I would like to add a link on an ASP page that I created that adds an appointment to Microsoft Outlook.
I think that Automation is the way to go, but have NOT figured it out. Any help would be great. I have seen it done on another site using javascript. I would be willing to do it that way too.
So I'm writing an ASP 3.0 script on an intranet which users have access to from IE 6, or within Outlook. Due to the pop-ups it uses, it doesn't work so well in Outlook, so I want to know whether the user is running the website from within Outlook or IE.
How can I do this if Outlook is returning "IE" as its browser information?
This script:
Dim objBrowsType
Set objBrowsType = Server.CreateObject("MSWC.BrowserType")
response.write("Browser Name: " & objBrowsType.Browser)
returns "Browser Name: IE" in both IE and Outlook.

View Replies View RelatedI need to access a user's outlook "contacts" using ASP. They are stored within the user's "contacts" folder inside their mailbox on the Exchange server (Exchange 2003). Script will need to log in to user's Exchange mailbox, access their "contacts" folder and parse them to display on page.
Put simply, all im trying to do is a Phone-book style app that pulls data from two different sources. The first source (Active Directory) I can do, its the second source (Exchange mailbox) that im having trouble with. I can pull data from Active Directory / Exchange GAL for display on the pages just cant find a way to get stuff from the mailstore. If it can't be done without an Active X component, then fair enough, just thought i'd ask out here.
I've just discussed this with my IT manager and he reckons you need to activate Outlook Web Services for this to be any use to you and he says that ain't gonna happen. What I want to know is:
a) is he right?
b) if he is, is there a way to access Outlook stuff WITHOUT turning on Outlook Web Services.
Does anyone have any sample code (or could you point me in a direction) that

View Replies View RelatedHas anyone had any luck editing the Microsoft Outlook Web Access pages? I am setting up my company's new OWA 2003 server. Now here's the problem, I had to create new logon pages because we authenticate to a different domain then the server is on (stupid mergers).
Now when the logout button is clicked on the page, it takes you back to the default logon page. Were a user to try and log back in from here it wouldn't work. Now simply adding a "response.redirect" to that page seems to break their code completely. So has anyone managed to do this and could let me know how?

View Replies View Relatedhow to access Outlook methods to generate an "add contact" event on the local user's machine. Most of the info I'm finding relates to Exchange server, not the local instance of OUtlook.
This event will be spawned from an intranet-based ASP page. The online contacts list will have a button to add the contact. On click, the default contact form will be displayed, with the primary fields pre-populated from the recordset selected. I'm sure this is a no-brainer, but haven't done this before.
I visited a site to sign up for an upcoming event. When I was done, the site offered me the option to create an Outlook appointment for the item. When I clicked the button, the site created a new appointment item which It saved in my Outlook Calendar.
I would like to implement something similar using ASP, however when I search for example code can only find references to ASP.NET. Is it possible to do this in ASP .
